Isn't It A Pity

     What if the Beatles had stayed together another 12 months? What would their final album have sounded like? I think it might have been their best ever, and I'm not even including "Imagine," which didn't come out in time to qualify for this list.
     Notice all the Harrison tunes. In a perfect world, "I Live for You" or "Isn't It a Pity" would have landed on Abbey Road instead of "Octopus' Garden" and "Maxwell's Silver Hammer."
     I would have preferred to end this list with a Lennon song, but "All Things Must Pass" was too sweet to ignore.
